Alonzo Mayfield
A Des Moines man accused of robbing the Vincent City Hall in 2019 has pleaded not guilty in Webster County District Court.
Alonzo C. Mayfield, 52, is charged with second-degree robbery and third-degree kidnapping after law enforcement say he entered the Vincent City Hall building, 104 Arthur St., on May 7, 2019, and robbed it, stealing $167 and locking the city clerk in the walk-in safe before fleeing. Both charges are Class C forcible felonies.
Mayfield pleaded not guilty to both counts on April 1.
According to the criminal complaint, around 3:30 p.m. on May 7, 2019, Mayfield entered the Vincent City Hall and told the city clerk inside, Sarah Geisinger, that “it was a robbery” and demanded money. The Vincent City Hall was formerly a bank.
